LMMSE filter for Rician MRI data
The linear minimum mean square error (LMMSE) estimator estimates the signal out of a noisy MR adquisition. The method automatically estimates the noise level from background. It is based on a Rician noise assumption, which is valid for single coil adquisitions (and sometimes in SENSE).
The whole method is described in
